Rangers face Dundee on Friday night at Dens Park in the Scottish Premiership.

Rangers Head Coach Graeme Murty looks on during The Scottish FA Youth Cup Final between Celtic and Rangers at Hampden Park on April 26, 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Rangers will be desperate to put their 2-0 loss to Hamilton behind them on Friday night when they take on Dundee in the Scottish Premiership at Dens Park – and fans have urged Graeme Murty to start Eduardo Herrera.

Herrera, 29, has struggled at Ibrox since his move from Mexican giants Pumas in the summer, a deal that was orchestrated by former manager Pedro Caixinha.

The nine-time Mexico international did come on for first-choice striker Alfredo Morelos on Saturday, but was unable to change the course of the match as Hamilton earned a surprise 2-0 victory.

Eduardo Herrera of Rangers celebrates after he scores his teams third goal during the Betfred League Cup Quarter Final at Firhill Stadium on September 19, 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Herrera has managed just two goals in 13 league and cup appearances for Rangers this season, but he has started only one of those matches and is considered largely unproven in the Light Blues shirt.

That has led to fans urging interim manager Graeme Murty to hand the powerful striker a start for the Gers, as his physcial frame and aerial prowess could be the key to gaining three points at Dundee.

Most fans want to see Murty combine both Herrera and Morelos as a two-man partnership, with one fan even claiming he would “love Morelos and Herrera” to combine despite Morelos out of form at the moment – failing to score in his last nine games.
